Reformation

by zevkaran

Reformation Remember when life was fun and easy Yeah I remember too Nowdays, the stress makes me queasy My life seems awfully blue Millennial life is easy, my elders say Whenever we get into a feud Yet I fear my life may be going astray When the college bills got me screwed Remember when school used to be enjoyable Life was just a breeze Suddenly the pressure seemed unavoidable My pile of work never seemed to cease I'm tired of living in a rut Procrastinating till my next exam I feel sick in my gut When I think about how lazy I am But what will I do What will I do? *2 I will reform my self I will develop inner strength Show my parents and my self that I can succeed Give me the pen Cleanse my mind And keep me focused for the entire time Reformation *3 I want reformation I used to be good at school Felt confident with my life in an of itself My body has plenty of energy (S.I unit: joules) Why is it so hard for me to assert myself The work is in front of me Right front and center My conciousness has a plea Why am I unable to be my mind's mentor I sit here exhausted and fatigued Nothing makes sense to me It's 2 AM and I am studying the heart's anatomy Who even knows if my neurons will fire properly But what will I do What will I do? *2 I will reform myself Keep my phone aside My eyes will be kept open wide Give me the table Turn off the distractions Let my thoughts turn into actions Reformation *3 I just want reformation The time ticks 4 AM and I head off to sleep Regurgitating the roles of various enzymes I know that the fruit of my efforts will be mine to reap I listen attentively for the sound of my alarm's chimes As I hear my phone vibrations diffract all around the room I come to the realization that my day to shine has come My shower is on freezing cold with my mind warning me of my impending doom But I know I won't let that be my outcome While I put on my shoes and get my bag I watch a motivational video to pump me up I dump my head in water to overcome my feeling of jet lag My mind keeps doing mental push ups Now what do I do What do I do? *2 I will make myself capable of excellence Ensure there is no more procrastination This is my opportunity for transformation Give me the test paper Show them the hall ticket I will hack my way through the thicket Reformation *7 I just want reformation As I sit here with my exam results in hand Proudly displaying the fruits of my work I remember that I took a stand Doing what ever I could to clear up the murk These struggles of mine are just like life Some concepts are useless, like studying about an alewife But each new concept is always nice to know It might not be practical, but hey it might at least end up in a trivia show
